Data
Sources
The source of
every item of data contained in section 11 is recorded in master data files and is
available on request. The principal sources are listed below. Many other sources were
consulted, but most of them provided only a few items and are not given here. In a few
cases the information given is based on an analogy with that for a closely related
chemical; the analogy was drawn by an expert in the field, whose identity appears in the
master data files.
Where a source was used for a single category of data, the
source is given in Section 3 ("Explanation of Terms") and is not repeated here.
1. General Sources
The following sources contained data for many of the 13
data categories used:
1. Manufacturers' Technical Bulletins - This is usually the
best single source of general information about the chemical. The bulletins contain the
most recent data. Bulletins were not available for a few chemicals that are not items of
commerce but are intermediates shipped from one manufacturing site to another.
2. Material Safety Data Sheets - These were provided by the
manufacturer using the U.S.Department of Labor Form OSHA-20 or an approved modification.
3. Code of Federal Regulations - Office of the Federal
Register, Archives and Record Service, Washington, D.C.,1972. Titles 46 (Shipping) and 49
